Been 2 plus years and nothing to show for it. You can keep repeating yourself ,but if you can’t prove anything, then the bashing will continue. Sure once someone finally can afford a real tune and get the cars up and running I’m sure the platform will speak for itself. Don’t blame the weather for the reasoning behind people not getting there cars up and running.

There are already several cars up and running... Thats what I was saying... Christian, Brad, trey and James all have their cars up and running. the Carbon Z is up and running on its new motor and trans... thats 4 out of the 10 right there.... the rest of the guys are building their cars or have put them up for the winter. Kits went out to customers in august-october... Bobby I believe has traveled and installed atleast 5-6 kits for customers.

Bullitt. At this point why not get someone from rjm to chime in? Are you saying their single person awd g37 customer is more important than all interested parties for their pd kit they should sell to many that they have invested 10s of thousands into?
Thats a very odd business technique.

Oh, please list the $14k stillen build mods required to hit 600whp. Go!

I saw that video when he first posted it and thought "Why he hating on singles?" . Almost 700 is absolutely not going to cut it. I'm in Orlando and Wanna Go fast registration starts March 1st.

I am not saying that the one car is what keeps RJM busy. What I am saying is that it is a huge time eater. Maybe you should reach out to RJM because you don’t want to hear what I have to say.

As an FYI RJM does more than Motorsports... they do work for medical businesses, aero space and third party manufacturing. The motorsports part of the business is their passion. But it doesn’t keep the doors open, people paid or the lights on.

If you or anyone is truly interested in the kit I have given you the means to contact RJM and ask all the questions you want. Get it from them directly... I talk to Bobby on nearly a daily basis so I know what’s going on.

Name me one build on a vortech stillen kit that didn’t require an entire overhaul of that kit...full supercharger upgrade or rebuild, switch to an air to air setup, or change out multiple parts. Not to mention to rebuild the entire fuel system.... you buy a kit that does 420whp and then you have to tear it apart and replace 70%+ of its components! On a whipple kit you just swap a pulley.

There is a LOT of backstory and behind the scenes grudge matching going on. If you aren’t on Facebook you wouldn’t know about the grudges and **** talking. By the way trey’s car does not have the right suspension in it. Hence, why it is all over the place. He is running some ridiculously firm springs on his coil overs. This leads to the dwell time for weight transfer to be very short and thus not allowing the tires enough time to grab traction. 20” wheels don’t help either. You also forget this is a stock block and was pushing over 600ftlbs! 2600-5200 saw over 600ftlbs! No forced induction bring on power that quickly and that sustained.

Bobby can be at times. However, refer to my other comment about Facebook **** talking as this was the audience. The people he called out were on the live stream.

You must be spending too much time on Facebook. I sell vortech kits as tuner kits for $6000 and you just need fuel and tuning solution on top of that. These kits consistently make around 500whp right out of the box on pump gas. Throw a RFS on and make 575-600whp on E85 all day. A FAR cry from $14k unless you buy your injectors for $7000 a set.

I get that you want to push this product for RJM and I have no problem with that. You said your in it for the community. If you truly are then do not fill them up with misinformed and completely incorrect information surrounding their other options.

How much power do those $7,000 injectors give you?

Did I mention your kit or did I mention the stillen kit. Before we talk about misinformation let’s get our facts straight... my comments are through all the experience I have had helping my friends and community mates try to make the most out of their stillen kits.

Not once did I mention the topgunz kits. So before you get all butt hurt let’s get this thread back on topic. Customer builds!

Guys guys calm down. For those wondering we are still here. We have not been active on the forum for many reasons.

Bullitt is right we are insanely busy wrapping up POs for our customers. We are trying to expand to take on more and to focus some more on the motorsports side.

We also had several customers send us cars to work on which in hindsight we should have avoided doing. These builds have been a distraction from the core of our business.

Also, we have focused on Facebook marketing due to the lack of response here in this forum. On Facebook we have gained more customers and revenue. We are actively participating on the Z pages there. Yes this is a great community but a business has to focus where they get the most return on their investment. With that being said Bullitt has attempted to keep you guys in the loop and share some of the updates from Facebook here.



Topgunz we marketed this kit to go after the stillen kit before you were selling your kit. No one is knocking your kit. However, we would be willing to put a whipple kit against a top gun kit any day of the week. The power delivery of the whipple kit is just insane with more power under the curve the kit is sure to have a major advantage. Maybe we can schedule something.
